Ingredients
  • 2 cups spelt flour could sub all purpose
  • 1 tbsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • 1 lb. silken tofu
  • 1 cup non-dairy milk of choice
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp. maple syrup
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • ½ cup cacao nibs
Instructions
  1. In small bowl, mix flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
  2. Place tofu in blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add oil, milk, maple and vanilla. Blend until smooth.
  3. Add dry ingredient mixture in 3 or 4 increments, blending between each addition. Blend just until mixed after the last addition. Batter will be relatively thick.
  4. Spray griddle or skillet with cooking spray or coat with vegan margarine. Heat over medium and drop in about ¼ cup of batter. Sprinkle a few cacao nibs on top.
  5. Allow to cook until batter begins to brown around the edges, about five minutes. Test with spatula to see if it's firm enough to flip. Gently flip and cook until the opposite side is lightly browned.
  6. Top with extra cacao nibs and maple syrup.
